Birth & Postpartum Doulas Near Me in Hickory, NC

I’m a tried-and-true newborn care specialist and postpartum and infant care doula with nearly a decade of experience serving families in Morganton, North Carolina. I know that babies are only little once and that the experience is much sweeter when the whole family is nurtured and well-rested. Driven by a desire to help families thrive, I founded Hickory Family Doulas. As a Certified Mommywise Sleep Trainer, I specialize in helping families achieve one of the most precious things in the world: great sleep. I use my extensive knowledge to provide sleep shaping for restless babies whose families need rest to thrive. My light humor and calm, reassuring presence bring comfort and ease to the families I work with. I live in Morganton with my son and our hodgepodge of pets. I love spending time at home with my son in our garden when I’m not supporting families. I love classic rock and solving mysteries as an armchair detective when I listen to true crime podcasts.

Greetings! I'd like to take a moment to introduce myself and share some facts about the role of a "Doula" or a "Birth Companion". First of all, you can call me Doula Komla (aka, Tabetha Cunningham). I have approximately 33 years of experience in the Human Services field, but in May of 2021 I answered the call to become a Certified Wholistic Birth Doula. I had the awesome pleasure of studying under Mama Mawusi Ashshakir, founder of The Mothership. What is a doula, you may ask. A doula is a trained companion who supports women through pregnancy, childbirth, miscarriage, lactation and other postpartum events. This is a huge undertaking for me but I am so excited to share what I've learned and to support women through the birthing process. I am currently offering my services at discounted rates and for a short amount of time I will tailor services to meet your budget. If you have questions or want to learn more about what I do, please contact me! Let's birth some babies!! KOMLA

Hello! I'm Sarah, and I am a Certified Labor/Postpartum Doula, PAILAdvocate (Pregnancy and Infant Loss), and Breastfeeding Specialist. I believe that holistic support for the entire family, not just physical care of the baby, is vital during the postpartum period.

My name is Rebecca Gordon. I am the founder of Mindful Family Wellness, Certified Labor Doula, Postpartum Doula, Certified HypnoBirthing® Childbirth Educator, a North Carolina Licensed Nutritionist, Certified Nutrition Specialist, and Certified Placenta Arts Specialist. I live just north of Charlotte, NC, in the Lake Norman area with my husband, 4 daughters, and lots of fur babies. As a doula and nutritionist whose practice serves the Charlotte and Lake Norman areas of North Carolina, I support birthing people improve their overall health, birth outcome, and mental wellness through the experiences of pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. I use such tools and services as childbirth education classes, doula support through pregnancy, labor/birth and postpartum, as well as nutritional guidance and education for both mother and baby. Providing these services has been shown to increase positive birth outcomes, reduce cesarean section births, reduce postpartum mental disorders such as postpartum depression/anxiety (PPD/A) and postpartum post-traumatic stress disorder, (PPTSD) increase breast/chest-feeding success and duration, and strengthen the holistic health of both parent and child. As you can see, I offer a number of different services. As a NC Licensed Nutritionist, I provide integrative and functional nutrition counseling for the entire family. I also provide doula support, including pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I am a Hypnobirthing® childbirth educator and have new classes starting monthly. The beauty of providing these services is that I can help you in one area or in many. I can see you or your family for nutritional guidance. I can see you for pregnancy and birth support, as a doula. Or we can combine these services. The possibilities are endless.
